This last week has been very busy, stressful, and exciting. I am thankful for all of it.
Well, not the stress part because it involves our beautiful @Saffisara. Saffi has been very sick for the last 10 days. During the week, she had a covid test, and it came back positive. With that in mind, I wanted to try and make something to help bring a smile to her face.
It has been a long time since I have made and edited a Sims 4 video!! I am a little rusty, but I sure had fun making this video for Saffi!! This video will not be for everyone, and that is okay. I am proud of what I accomplished for my wonderful friend.

My fairy story is coming along. I finally sat down last night and drew Bricky Blu. I have more details that I want to add to the sketch. Finishing the drawing is now added to my list of things to accomplish soon! Along with getting the story of Bricky Blue out of my head and onto paper? Screen? Keyboard? I am old, I know.

Bricky Blu

I have been coloring in a sketch I did between the rain, sleet, snow, high winds, no electricity, more high winds, and hot and humid weather. @Dreemsteem saw it on one of my posts. She asked if she could buy it.
There is more to this story, but it is not mine to tell now. I do love how it is turning out!! This makes me very happy.


Speaking of @Dreemsteem and contests. She ran a @Dreemport contest for the last six weeks. The posts I made about going on a trip were written for her competition. I was fortunate and came in first place two times and second place two times, which gave me three entries into the contest's Grand Prize.
What no one knew was what the grand prize was. Knowing Dreem I knew it would be great, whatever it was. I was just having a ball writing fun posts about my friends going on vacation. Little did I know I would WIN a seven-day vacation to California to meet Dreemsteem! YUP! You can see the results right here: WINNERS. I'm more excited than them
March is a short and long time away from now, but I am so excited to meet some of the people I love and talk to each day.


The Create Your Fairy | Challenge went so well the week before. This week, everyone took up the challenge of Create Your Monster Challenge. All of the stories found under the tag #snookschallenge2 are really pretty scary!! Today is the last day to get your post in for the drawing.
The cutoff time is 5:00 PM CST (11:00 PM UTC) Saturday, December 18, 2021.
There is still time to enter for the random prize drawings if you care to.


This week I got to meet some brand new people at Hive. One such person I would like to introduce you to is @mystic0601. She is into photography. Her photos are really great! @Tattoojay, @Bluefinstudios, and @TheKittyGirl, you all should stop by her posts (all eight of them) and check her photos out.
I do not know much about taking a great photograph, but I know what I like. Plus, being on Hive for only a week, I am sure she could use some advice from like-minded people.


Another newish person I have to meet in the last weeks is @itsostylish. She is a bundle of positive energy where ever she goes. Just seeing her icon makes me smile. She did a post for @ladiesofhive's question of the week. LOH Community Challenge #61. I wish for time! is a wish I think most of us would love.
If you have time, you really should go check out her blog!! If you are lucky enough, she will read one of your posts and leave you some of the best comments I have ever witnessed.

I think I had more to share, but there is such a thing as oversharing. Let us not forget about forgetting either! So take your choice as to what I was going to say. Know while this has been a tough week for me, there were many bright and shining spots along the way.
Thank you ALL for that!

Help someone smile today. It can not hurt you.
